INFLUENCE OF SPECIAL ELECTROPLATING PROCESS ON CHROMIUM DEPOSITION

Influence of electroplating parameters on microstructure and amount of ceramic particle deposition in Ni-Co-CeO2-ZrO2 composite coating

Austenitic stainless steels are high performance steels that have various applications in solid oxide fuel cells and boiler tubes under high temperature operating conditions. The Cr2O3 oxide layer formed on the steel surface becomes unstable at high temperatures and reduces the oxidation resistance of the steel. Therefore, protection of these steels at high temperatures is essential. Therefore,...

Preliminary Assessment of Chromium Emissions from Chromium Electroplating Faci Lities

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) intends to add either chromium or hexavalent chromium to the list of hazardous air pollutants under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act. A preliminary assessment performed by EPA has identified several categories of stationary sources as emitters of significant quantities of chromium to the atmosphere and for which the proposal o f national e...

Electroless Deposition and Electroplating of Metals

A New Method for Electroplating of Crack-Free Chromium Coatings

In this study, different amounts of MoS2 particles and an anionic surfactant were added to the conventional chromium electroplating bath in order to electrodeposite crack-free chromium coatings and the structure, morphology, tribology and corrosion behavior of the deposited coatings were investigated using X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, pin on disk ...

Extraction and recovery of chromium from electroplating sludge.

This work reports a study of the extraction and recovery of chromium from the wastes (class I dangerous) generated by a galvanic manufacturer. Commercial HCl at room temperature was employed, and the conditions of the extraction process were optimized according to a sequential experimental design, which also included the acid concentration and contact time as variables. The best extraction cond...
